The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has moved the commencement date of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to Thursday, April 24, 2025, a day earlier than the previously announced Friday, April 25.
This adjustment was confirmed in a statement by JAMB’s Public Communication Advisor, Fabian Benjamin, shared via the Board’s official X (formerly Twitter) page.
The change, according to the statement, was made to address certain logistical requirements involving JAMB and its partner agencies.
